Pros

Bonuses are a tiny part of total compensation so you don't need to worry about performance reviews.

Cons

Senior management quit in London and New York but never replaced. Think very hard if joining from a major corporation as you'll certainly notice the huge drop in professionalism - bonus date and amount is shrouded in secrecy (although guaranteed to be later and smaller every year.) Hiring is deliberately sabotaged by management. Benefits are confusing and even hidden from you, employer pension contribution is statutory as is maternity.

Good smart people, dedicated company, so-so clients

Business Outlook

Pros

People are great and universally smart and helpful. Seems like this is exactly what you should get when you pay above average and set high expectations. Company is extremely dedicated to getting employees to succeed.. collaboration, mentorship (separate from management), multiple career path guides, formal and informal tech sessions, very good training with real-world examples.

Cons

Development hardware/software/environments/resources provided by client are horrible. This reduces productivity a lot, which everyone is aware of, but it's client unwavering mandates. Expectations generally take this overhead into account, but it sucks to feel less productive than you could be.
